The Last Mile

So here I am in Perth, my final day. In twelve hours I will be boarding my plane to Indonesia!! This will be the final leg of my journey to Egypt!

So I left behind Sydney, and it was an amazing time. Sydney is a big city, when compared to Auckland and Perth. There is always something to do, no matter what time of the day or night it is. maybe it is the outsider's glamour, but I felt it is a city you would never get bored in. As is customary for me, I forgot some things there, and didn't get the chance to say hello/goodbye to everybody i wanted. Nevertheless, I spent 3 days with a smile on my face, I practiced Yoga, I walked every day, I picked up rubbish of beaches and walkways... T'was a good week :)

and then there was Perth.... truth be told i haven't really done much here. I came to see my brother, dogs and to relax. plus Perth is a bit of a hole in my opinion...

oh well, wider pastures in 12 hours!

and so it begins

And so it begins. I have left behind Auckland, my old life and all those amazing people i met along the way there. although I am sad to leave them behind, I look forward to seeing those friends i left behind when I left Sydney! only fitting that is my first stop.


Sydney

This is my second day here, everything I loved about this city is still here. The huge sprawling metropolis, the cultural mesh. Today I sat in the bus, two women in front of me were chatting away in Portuguese, a family of Indonesians were telling off their children, and a young Dutch backpacking couple sat behind me arguing the particulars of their next trip. Behind them sat some Spanish speaking tourists and some Germans. from what i could gather, they had met the night before in a drunken stupor and seemed to have made an awesome connection.

I met up with my friend Anaja, whose parents run a Brazilian restaurant. needless to stay i am stuffing my face with all sorts of treats! We spent the day cruising the city and seeing the sights, which was awesome! Now I am off to the city to a live band performance. I am looking forward to my week here!!


Luiz, Out.


p.s. I figure this would make for an interesting experience: leave a comment with an idea of what it is you think I should do whenever I post something. the best/craziest/coolest idea will be tried out i promise (so long as it doesn't mean I get shot/arrested/killed needlesly
